FA Cup Quarter-Final Draw | Burnley (H)

[shemnel]

We did get conned in the recent Derby

I don't give a twat, we're bigger and better than them, and this is the FA cup. It just irks me that so many city threads are coming back to United at the moment, it smells bad.

Try flicking a coin 10 times and getting 10/10 of the same side

Try getting HTTTHTHTHH in that order or any other combination, it’s all the same odds

Rawk-like conspiracy strikes again. They've just got a worse draw than us, some people are determined to turn us into scousers. How about we look forward to our club legend coming back to the etihad rather than inventing some myth about united somehow influencing the draw.

Yeah but ‘Gill’ definitely’ has his paws all over this, the KGB loving sphincter

 

[lunebleu]

Good to see Vinnie back home. Our future manager.

 

[dadnlad]

United just drew the 2nd hardest opponent out of 7, so maybe give the conspiracy shite a rest for a while.

why so serious ?

 

[awest]

I like Vinny but I want us to hammer Burnley.

Tell you what. Quite happy to do a charity bet with you witnessed by an independent bluemooner.
You hit red or black 10 times on the bounce, I'll pay £500 to your chosen charity, you don't you pay £500 to mine.
Deal?

Worth a bet that 50/50.

It depends if we are discussing discrete event probability or aggregate expected value probability.

You explained the former well, but the latter is a method of determining how aberrant aggregate outcomes are, which can help to determine if processes are actually random or not. Probabilistic analysis uses expected value versus actual value to give a confidence level of bias results.

The longer they go receiving home draws the more aberrational it becomes and the further from expected values.

Expected values, it doesn't change the undeniable fact that each draw is an independent event and therefore they have exactly an even chance of being drawn at home on each occasion.

since the 20/21 season United have been drawn away just once in the FA cup thats once in 10 games whilst we have had 6 out of 10 not saying its fixed but its fixed

Can people stop referring to those knob-ends as "U****d"
So many options to select from.

(nothing personal cg,just makes me feel ill)

Reckon the FA desperately want a Manchester Derby final.

The Met will demand it's moved to the Swamp!

Typical City will make sure it's Rags v Burnley

Think we had a good run of home draws a few years back over a couple of seasons didn’t we? Certainly had some easy ones.

Worth a bet that 50/50.

You taking then?

You'll be taking that bet then?

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

I wonder what emotions vinny is feeling right now?

Should he go with the meat and potato or play safe with a cheese and onion? What a quandary, his fod will be throbbing more than usual the alien fecker (:

Can’t wait to see his return home; epic

It has given them an extra spring in their step. It is not going to be easy in their cup game but it is still another home fixture.

OK, then you go and you need to hit red, red, black, black, red, red red, black, red, black in that order, who has the better odds of winning?

 

[TinFoilHat]

Remember that Yaya semi …?!

 

[jrb]

At least the Rags didn’t get Grimsby, Blackburn or Sheff United at home.

Fulham will give them a game at least.

Semi-Final

City v Brighton

United v Sheffield United

Nailed on.

I've been a croupier, I've seen 10 consecutive red rolls, black rolls, odd rolls, even rolls and that's just roulette. I've seen all 7 players dealt black jack in the same hand, I've dealt at a craps table and not seen a 7 rolled for 2 hours.....

You are Stan Bowles and I claim my £5.
